Product details
Overview
GP10D-M3/54 from Vishay General Semiconductor is a glass-passivated junction plastic rectifier diode in DO-41 package, rated for 200 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), 1.0 A average forward current (IF(AV)), and 30 A non-repetitive surge current (IFSM). It delivers low forward voltage drop (VF = 1.1 V at 1.0 A), low leakage (IR = 5.0 μA at 25 °C), and fast recovery (trr = 3.0 μs), serving as a general-purpose rectifier in AC/DC power supplies and freewheeling paths.
For engineers reviewing the GP10D-M3/54 datasheet, GP10D-M3/54 pinout, GP10D-M3/54 application, or GP10D-M3/54 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 200 V blocking rating, DO-41 through-hole package compatibility, 175 °C maximum junction temperature, and Superectifier® structure enabling high reliability in consumer-grade power conversion circuits.
Technical Context
The GP10D-M3/54 is a single silicon PN junction diode with cavity-free glass-passivated construction, ensuring robust moisture and contamination resistance. Its electrical behavior follows standard rectifier characteristics: forward conduction governed by VF–IF relationship, reverse blocking limited by VRRM and IR, and transient response defined by trr and IFSM.
Thermal performance is characterized by RθJA = 55 °C/W (PCB-mounted, 0.375" lead length), supporting operation from –65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature. The device uses matte tin-plated leads compliant with J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102 solderability standards, and meets JESD 201 Class 1A whisker testing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 200 V - Maximum repetitive reverse voltage the diode blocks without breakdown; defines usable input voltage range in rectifier designs. |
| IF(AV) | 1.0 A - Average forward current capability at 0.375" lead length; sets continuous DC output current limit in linear or transformer-based supplies. |
| IFSM | 30 A - Peak non-repetitive surge current (8.3 ms half-sine); determines immunity to line transients and inrush events. |
| VF | 1.1 V @ 1.0 A - Forward voltage drop at rated DC current; directly impacts conduction loss and thermal design in high-efficiency applications. |
| trr | 3.0 μs - Reverse recovery time under IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, Irr = 0.25 A; enables use in moderate-frequency switching (e.g., 20–50 kHz) without excessive switching loss. |
| TJ max. | +175 °C - Maximum allowable junction temperature; supports operation in thermally constrained enclosures or high-ambient environments. |
| IR | 5.0 μA @ 25 °C - Maximum DC reverse leakage at rated VRRM; critical for low-power standby circuits and high-impedance bias networks. |
Pinout & Package
Package: DO-41 (DO-204AL), axial-leaded, molded epoxy over glass body; UL 94 V-0 rated; cathode indicated by color band on body.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (unbanded end) | Forward current entry point | Connected to AC source or switch node in freewheeling configuration; must handle full IF(AV) and IFSM. |
| Cathode (banded end) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to output rail or ground return; polarity marking ensures correct orientation during manual or automated assembly. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Superectifier® structure | Enhanced reliability via cavity-free glass passivation-eliminates interfacial voids that cause early failure under thermal cycling or humidity stress. |
| Low VF (1.1 V) | Reduces conduction losses by ~15% vs. standard 1N400x diodes at 1 A, lowering heatsink requirements in compact adapters. |
| Fast trr (3.0 μs) | Enables efficient operation in quasi-resonant flyback and line-frequency inverters where slow recovery causes cross-conduction or EMI. |
| Solder dip rated 275 °C / 10 s | Supports wave and selective soldering processes without junction degradation or bond wire lift, ensuring manufacturing yield in high-volume production. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar rectifier diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N4004GP-E3/54 | VRRM = 400 V, VF = 1.1 V @ 1 A, trr ≈ 30 μs, IR = 5 μA, same DO-41 package | Higher blocking voltage but significantly slower recovery; unsuitable for circuits with fast switching or high dv/dt | Select only if reverse voltage margin >400 V is required and switching frequency <1 kHz. |
| GP10DHE3/54 | Identical electrical specs and DO-41 package; differs only in packaging format (tape-and-reel vs. bulk) and RoHS compliance suffix | No functional difference; both meet same JEDEC and Vishay reliability standards | GP10DHE3/54 is preferred for automated SMT placement lines using 13" reels; GP10D-M3/54 suits manual or semi-automated through-hole assembly. |
Compared with 1N4004GP-E3/54, GP10D-M3/54 offers faster recovery for improved efficiency in higher-frequency converters; compared with GP10DHE3/54, it shares identical performance but uses M3 packaging-optimized for hand-soldering and small-batch prototyping rather than high-speed reel-fed insertion.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for GP10D-M3/54?
The GP10D-M3/54 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ max.) of +175 °C, allowing reliable operation in thermally constrained environments such as enclosed power adapters or near heat-generating components. This rating is validated per Vishay's thermal characterization and supports extended lifetime under continuous 1.0 A load at elevated ambient temperatures when mounted with 0.375" lead length on PCB.
Is GP10D-M3/54 RoHS-compliant?
Yes, GP10D-M3/54 is RoHS-compliant and carries the "E3" suffix designation per Vishay's ordering nomenclature, indicating compliance with EU Directive 2011/65/EU. The matte tin-plated leads meet J-STD-002 and JESD 22-B102 solderability standards, and the molding compound satisfies UL 94 V-0 flammability requirements.
What does the "M3" in GP10D-M3/54 signify?
The "M3" in GP10D-M3/54 denotes the packaging configuration: 5500-piece tape-and-reel format on 13-inch diameter reels, optimized for manual or semi-automated through-hole assembly. It is functionally identical to GP10DHE3/54 but differs in reel specifications and handling suitability-M3 emphasizes ease of prototyping and low-volume production.
Can GP10D-M3/54 replace 1N4004 in existing designs?
GP10D-M3/54 can replace 1N4004 in most cases where 200 V VRRM suffices, offering lower VF (1.1 V vs. ~1.1 V) and much faster trr (3.0 μs vs. ~30 μs). However, due to its lower reverse voltage rating, verify that peak reverse voltage in the circuit remains ≤200 V. No PCB changes are needed-the DO-41 footprint and lead spacing are identical.
What is the reverse recovery time (trr) of GP10D-M3/54 and how is it measured?
The GP10D-M3/54 has a typical reverse recovery time (trr) of 3.0 μs, measured under standardized conditions: IF = 0.5 A, IR = 1.0 A, and Irr = 0.25 A. This value reflects the time required for minority carriers to clear after forward conduction ceases, directly influencing switching loss and EMI in circuits operating above 10 kHz.
